Chapter 291 Nightmare



Now, it depends on who can keep calm.

Shen Ningyuan said this to herself in her heart.

The night passed in a flash.

In the sky, the sun is rising, and the sky is full of brilliant rays of light.

Brilliant light poured into the An Ning Marquis Mansion, covering every blade of grass and every tree.

What a vibrant scene.

Inside Xiyuanju, Lan Yin carried a copper basin, walked around the long corridor, and slowly walked to the outside of the main house.

Waiting with a calm expression.

Lan Yin looked up at the sky and saw that it was getting late, so she gently lifted the bead curtain and walked into the inner room.

As soon as I put the copper basin down, I heard a whisper mixed with pain coming from behind the screen.

“Don’t…don’t…don’t die…”

When Lan Yin heard the voice, she frowned, walked hurriedly around the screen and came to the bed.

He swiftly picked up the golden hook hanging by the bed door and hung up the bed curtain.

When her eyes fell on the young lady's face, her brows furrowed even tighter.

Called softly.

"Miss? Miss, wake up..."

Seeing beads of sweat oozing out of Shen Ningyuan's fair forehead, her delicate little face was wrinkled tightly, as if she was in great pain.

Lan Yin felt mixed emotions.

He called out a few more times, but still received no response. After thinking for a moment, he turned back to the table and dipped the handkerchief into the copper basin.

He gently wiped the cold sweat from Shen Ningyuan's cheek.

While wiping, he called out to the lady softly.

In recent years, Shen Ningyuan often had nightmares, but after being treated by a master of traditional Chinese medicine, she has gotten much better.

But now I am trapped in the nightmare again.

Shen Ningyuan heard the gentle call and gradually woke up from the nightmare.

I slowly opened my eyes, and my eyelids felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

A physiological tear oozed from the corner of the eye.

Slowly sliding down the cheek.

Lan Yin looked at the young lady's current state, feeling sad, and asked with a worried look.

"Miss, why did you have a nightmare again out of nowhere? Are you worried about that person?"

Shen Ningyuan stared blankly at the veil above her head, pursed her lips, and said nothing.

After a while, he turned his head slightly and looked at the mottled light pouring down through the window lattice on the ground.

She told herself more than once in her heart that this was Xiyuanju where she lived.

It was not the tragic scene of blood flowing like a river at the Meridian Gate.

But even though I have been awake for such a long time, the scenes in the dream are still vivid in my mind, as if they happened yesterday.

In the nightmare, there was a strange red color everywhere, and blood was flowing and spreading to the ground.

Under the sunlight, the blood gradually dried up and turned reddish brown.

This was the scene in my previous life when I witnessed the Shen family being beheaded in public at the Meridian Gate.

This is also the nightmare that will haunt her throughout her life.

Unless thanks to the previous ending.

Let the Ji family be destroyed.

All those who have hurt her will go to hell without exception.

It is estimated that only at that time will Shen Ningyuan be able to truly let go of the past and look forward to the future.

In recent days, I have indeed been under too much psychological pressure, which has caused nightmares that I haven't had for a long time to reappear in my dreams.

Shen Ningyuan's thoughts gradually regained clarity, and she curled the corners of her lips weakly.

He slowly shook his head at Lan Yin, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

If she had not witnessed the demise of the Ji family, she would have lived a good life.

You must also live well.

Lan Yin understood clearly that the young lady only looked fine, but all her thoughts were hidden in her heart, with no one to tell.

But she was just Shen Ningyuan's personal maid, so even if she had a lot to say, she couldn't say it out loud.

Lan Yin nodded and then said.

"Miss, how about sending someone to deliver the letter..."

As for who this letter was sent to, it was naturally Xie Wanzhou.

There will be no one else except him.

Shen Ningyuan wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes and shook her head indifferently.

"No need. If there really is any news, he will send someone to inform you. No need to worry about it."

Then, he got up and washed and dressed.

It was just a bad nightmare.

There's no need to be so suspicious.

If you have made so many preparations in this life and still cannot get what you want, it is purely fate.

No one can be blamed.

Although he thought so in his heart, if that day really came, he would definitely drag Ji Yunchuan to be buried with him.

He won’t stay at all. Ji Yunchuan is living freely in this world.

Half an hour later.

Chen Ningyuan had just finished breakfast. She put down the ivory chopsticks in her hand, picked up the warm cotton handkerchief that Lan Yin had prepared long ago, and gently wiped the corner of her mouth.

At this moment, Yi Ge walked slowly to her and said, "Miss, Ji Yunnuo wants to see you. He said he has something important to discuss with you."

When Shen Ningyuan heard the name, her expression was slightly startled.

I reacted quickly.

With his eyes half closed, he thought carefully in his mind.

Is there something important about Ji Yunnuo? Why are you here so early?

Could it be that he already knew what happened in the Marquis An Ning's mansion?

A lot of thoughts came to my mind.

Shen Ningyuan's expression showed nothing unusual as she gave the order casually.

"Arrange them to the pavilion by the lake. There are some things that should be discussed now."

Otherwise, Ji Yunnuo would feel resentful again in the future.

If that were the case, it would not be beautiful.

The An Ning Marquis Mansion has long been the target of public criticism, and no further complications can be allowed to arise.

If Ji Yunnuo was the one who leaked the information outside the court and revealed what happened in the mansion, then she would become the target of public criticism and rebuke.

Shen Ningyuan would never allow such a thing to happen.

Any potential danger must be nipped in the bud at the first opportunity.

It won't leave any hidden dangers.

Yi Ge received the order from his master, bowed and retreated, and quickly arranged everything.

After about two quarters of an hour, Shen Ningyuan had packed up and slowly headed towards the lake.

The breeze blows on my face, the willows sway, and there is a damp moisture in the air.

Chen Ningyuan had no intention of looking at the scenery at this moment, because her mind was filled with too many things, making it feel a little heavy.

He walked to the pavilion and looked at Ji Yunnuo who was sitting upright inside.

Shen Ningyuan was originally a little nervous, but the moment her eyes met his, she returned to her usual cool and elegant self.

With a calm expression, she walked up the stairs as usual, then slowly came to sit down opposite him.

The moment she sat down, Yi Ge placed the food box on the stone table and laid out the exquisite pastries inside one by one.

Lan Yin served a pot of tea.

Shen Ningyuan watched their actions silently, and when the sword handle was almost in place, she waved at them.

"Go and guard the surroundings. Don't let anyone get close."

"Yes, miss."

As they were talking, Yi Ge and Lan Yin bowed respectfully and left the pavilion.

The two of them guarded each direction, keeping vigilant of the surroundings and preventing anyone from approaching.

When the footsteps gradually faded away, Shen Ningyuan slowly raised her head and looked at Ji Yunnuo with a frank look.
